Hehehe... The best way to describe them is simply "different". While the
JNCIP and JNCIE are both 8-hour lab exams there really isn't a way to
quantify the two against each other!

JNCIP exam is more closely associated with the R&S CCIE due to its topic
focus. Juniper exams will go into more depth on protocols (because they
don't have the same lengthy feature list that Cisco does) but will be more
real-world scenario based.

The JNCIE is more closely associated with the SP CCIE by topic focus. Some
say the JNCIE is harder because you have more devices to configure than any
of the CCIE exams, and certainly more BB devices to interact with. But that
doesn't necessarily make it HARDER, just a bit less convoluted and more
complicated.

The bottom line with either exam though is whether or not you know the
technologies! If you do not, you can fail either exam just as easily! :)

HTH,

Jeff Doyle do have JNCIE also. As far I can remember, his number was in
first 50.
One slight off topic. I work for a service provider vendor and we have lot
of ABCs (Anything but Cisco). People boast that JNCIP is equivalent to CCIE
and JNCIE is lot harder than CCIE. Is that true Scott?
Anyway I am undeterred by it. I am following my dream of achieving CCIE.
